America mourns the service members killed by terrorists in Afghanistan today.
The 2400+ troops killed in last 20 years were on a mission, including during my combat tours.
Never once did we allow terrorists to stop a mission.
We must finish the evacuation.
The most important facts for you to remember today:
Less than 0.001% of those fully vaccinated have had a fatal breakthrough case.
Less than 0.004% of those fully vaccinated have been hospitalIzed.
The vaccines work.
The vaccines are your best protection from the virus.
@LukeRussert@HarperHorizon@PunchbowlNews Luke, I wondered where you were! We’ve missed you. I look forward to reading your book and pray that this time has been healing and transformative. Congrats!
The right to vote is fundamental. It gives Americans a voice in what happens in our nation. When more people have a voice, our democracy becomes more representative, and our nation becomes stronger.
We won’t give up the fight to strengthen our right to vote.
Covid cases are starting to rise again, up 10% in the past week, as the Delta variant becomes more dominant. Still 99.5% of those dying are unvaccinated - for heaven's sake folks, do the smart thing!
NEW: These executive orders are a huge victory for the gun safety movement. For years, survivors and advocates, including @MomsDemand volunteers, took on NRA-backed lawmakers who refused to act. Today, President Biden made it clear those days are over. https://t.co/LlNBxzgw2t
Let me be clear: there's no serious comparison between voting laws in Colorado and Georgia.
Colorado is a vote-by-mail state — we send every registered voter a ballot. We also have same day voter registration.
Oh, and you can hand out water in line.
I am heartbroken to announce that my Dad, my hero, Kevin Mahoney, was killed in the King Soopers shooting in my hometown of Boulder, CO. My dad represents all things Love. I'm so thankful he could walk me down the aisle last summer.
A once-in-a-century pandemic cannot be the only thing that slows mass shootings in this country. It’s time for leaders everywhere to listen to the American people when they say enough is enough.
We promised the American people an end to politics as usual.
Today we started down the path to delivering on that promise.
I just voted YES on #HR1 because Americans are tired of corruption and dark money influencing our democracy.
We're ready to work #ForthePeople.
